Per liberal elections guru Nate Silver, Randy Hultgren has a 63% chance of being the next Congressman from the 14th District of Illinois. Silver also rates the race as a "lean takeover" opportunity for the Republican Party.See Silver's page on the race here: http://elections.nytimes.com/2010/house/illinois/14See Silver's full analysis here: http://fivethirtyeight.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/09/10/g-o-p-has-2-in-3-chance-of-taking-house-model-forecasts/
Additionally, Washington Post reporter Chris Cillizza has ranked Randy's race the 41st most competitive House race in the nation. Cillizza also says the outcome of this campaign "could be vital to a GOP takeover" of the House of Representatives.See Cillizza's full list here: http://voices.washingtonpost.com/thefix/the-line/the-fix-fifty.html#more
And Illinois Review's take.
Prognosticators and pundits are getting their predictions heated up for the November 2 election, and Illinois will be one of the battleground states that at least one politico suggests could determine whether Nancy Pelosi is House Speaker in 2011... Give what you can. Volunteer to make calls. Much at stake and we in the 14th a key battleground.
